The next morning.
In the Battle King Manor's bedroom, Xuanyuan Zhan got up from the bed and sat on the bed as he said politely, "It's all thanks to you helping this duke this time. Otherwise, this duke wouldn't even know what good idea I would have made."
Xue Leng felt uncomfortable after hearing Xuanyuan Zhan speaking to him so politely. "My prince, this is a duty, so you don't need to take it to heart."
"Oh right, what medicine did you give this king to consume? Even the imperial physician in the palace did not detect that this king was faking illness." Xuanyuan Zhan was extremely confused. He was usually skilled in both martial and civil arts, but his medical skills were his weakness.
"Prince, this was created using the exclusive formula of our Xue Clan. Let alone the royal doctors of the hospital, even if it's Hua Zishuo Tuo, he wouldn't be able to find any flaws."
"Godly Doctor, I can't see that you can still rely on me in times of crisis even though you usually look gentle and weak." Xuanyuan Zhan teased Xue Leng.
Xue Leng didn't know how to answer.
"Your highness, it's better to be careful. Things haven't been resolved yet, so it's better if nothing happens." Xue Leng kindly reminded Xuanyuan Zhan.
"This king sees that you have stayed with Dou Dou and the others for too long, how dare you speak to this king." Xuanyuan Zhan said in displeasure. He originally thought that only Feng Yu and Dou Dou would dare to tease him, but he didn't think that this Xue Leng would actually dare to speak to him in such a manner.
"Your Highness, your subordinate doesn't dare, but …" Xue Leng had wanted to explain. But Xuanyuan Zhan didn't even give him a chance to explain.
"Enough." He spoke the two words indifferently, making people feel intimidated.
Just as Xuanyuan Zhan and Xue Leng were whispering with each other in the room, the coincidentally Feng Yu was about to go over to check on Xuanyuan Zhan's condition. She didn't expect to hear such a shocking secret outside his room.
"Alright, Xuanyuan Zhan lied to me for so long, and ended up pretending to be sick after busy in front of me. Although I normally get seduced by beauties, Dou Dou will completely eradicate everything. This time, even Dou Dou was deceived. "Ai, I was being careless in making friends." Feng Yu muttered to himself.
Feng Yu looked at the two men outside the room and felt that it was really funny.
Feng Yu quietly returned to her bedroom. When Dou Dou saw that his mother had returned, he went up to her and asked in a childish voice, "Mother, how is Uncle Zhan's condition?
When Feng Yu saw Dou Dou's cute and mature look, she immediately felt that his son would become a scourge to many girls after he grew up.
Feng Yu looked at her charming appearance and decided to tease Dou Dou. "Ai, I just went to visit your Uncle Zhan and found that not only did his condition not improve, it seemed to have worsened. I wonder if he can hold on."
Hearing Feng Yu's words, the little fellow ran towards the Battle King's bedroom with a worried expression: "Uncle Zhan, don't die. If I knew this would happen, I would've treated you better."
Dou Dou ran towards Xuanyuan Zhan, "Uncle …" Dou Dou hadn't even finished speaking when he realized where Xuanyuan Zhan and Xue Leng were chatting.
"Uncle Zhan, your body is done. Why aren't you lying down?" Dou Dou was a little confused.
"Humph, humph …" Xuanyuan Zhan awkwardly cleared his throat, Xue Leng realised that he was not in a good mood and wittily lied, "Dou Dou, the Duke is better now than he was in the past, isn't it because of your mother's meticulous care? His condition has improved a bit. "
Dou Dou's eyes were quickly spinning in his eye sockets. No, that's not right.
Dou Dou looked at Xuanyuan Zhan and ran out.
"Not bad, if not I would have been exposed." Only then did Xuanyuan Zhan dare to take a deep breath.
"A child should be fine." Xue Leng comforted her.
Dou Dou ran out of the house and found a small grass to hide in, quickly hiding it. When Dou Dou returned to Xuanyuan Zhan's bedroom, he found that Xuanyuan Zhan was the only person in the room.
Dou Dou ran over to Xuanyuan Zhan's side and gently called out: "Uncle Zhan. Are you asleep? "
Xuanyuan Zhan pretended to be asleep, but Dou Dou's voice was soft and sweet, so speaking made his ears itch. Xuanyuan Zhan thought: This little guy is definitely testing me, I have to endure this for now.
Dou Dou realized that Xuanyuan Zhan did not do anything, and immediately took out his ultimate technique, Dou Dou rubbed the small grass on his nose, causing Xuanyuan Zhan's face to turn red.
Xuanyuan Zhan could not take it anymore, "Achoo."
Dou Dou realized that Xuanyuan Zhan was not sick and was pretending to be sick. Dou Dou was prepared to play tricks on him.
Dou Dou had originally wanted to tell his mother, but for some reason, Dou Dou felt that he really wanted his mother and the Uncle Zhan to be together. Dou Dou decided to keep this a secret, so that his mother and the Uncle Zhan could get along well. But Dou Dou felt that even though he had been deceived by Xuanyuan Zhan for so long, he was still worried about him. The more Dou Dou thought about it, the more upset he felt. Dou Dou climbed onto Xuanyuan Zhan's bed. As Dou Dou's body was too small, climbing onto it was difficult.
Xuanyuan Zhan felt that when Dou Dou climbed onto his bed, he wondered what kind of tricks this little fellow was going to play.
Dou Dou sat on Xuanyuan Zhan's body and rolled up his sleeves as he prepared to make his move. Dou Dou's little hand wandered around Xuanyuan Zhan's body, causing him to feel unwell. Dou Dou realized that Xuanyuan Zhan did not have a big reaction, and extended his evil little hand towards Xuanyuan Zhan's armpits.
Xuanyuan Zhan really couldn't stand the little guy's torture and surrendered. He stood up and said helplessly: "Ai, little guy, quickly stop."
Dou Dou looked at Xuanyuan Zhan who was sitting up, "Oh, so Uncle Zhan is pretending to be sick."
Xuanyuan Zhan saw that Dou Dou had seen through it, but he did not panic, and leisurely said: "Shh, this matter can't be told to anyone, do you understand?"
Suddenly, Dou Dou tilted his head and thought for a while, then asked hesitantly: "Then, mother can't say it either?"
"Yes, not even mother." Xuanyuan Zhan said in an exceptionally serious tone, "If mother knew, she would definitely be angry."
"Then I want to eat Yuejing Workshop's pastries." Dou Dou said mischievously.
"I'll agree to your request." Xuanyuan Zhan expressed his surrender, and also hooked his nose, looking at Dou Dou's somewhat proud face, Xuanyuan Zhan said: "A man must keep his word about things he has promised others."
"Of course, I will do as you say." Dou Dou patted his chest and agreed.
Xuanyuan Zhan suddenly heard that someone outside the room seemed to be lying down again. After Dou Dou saw that he had laid down, he started on his path to revenge.
"Creak!" The bedroom door opened. The moment Feng Yu opened the door, she was stunned. Her own Little Dou Dou was lying on top of Xuanyuan Zhan's body.
Seeing that his mother had come, Dou Dou did not stop, but instead teased Xuanyuan Zhan even more, until his face was completely red. When Feng Yu saw Xuanyuan Zhan's flushed face, he really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Feng Yu almost couldn't hold it in.
"Hmm? What are you doing? " Feng Yu prepared to resolve this awkward situation.
Dou Dou said with a sincere face, "If it's me, it'll be good for Uncle Zhan's illness. Didn't Uncle Zhan get sick?"
Feng Yu raised her eyebrows. Xuanyuan Zhan was basically not sick, and was only deceiving Dou Dou. Feng Yu did not know that Dou Dou already knew that Xuanyuan Zhan was not sick, so she waved her hand and said: "Hurry and come down."
Dou Dou also obediently got off Xuanyuan Zhan's body and ran to his mother's side to pull her hand.
The expression on Feng Yu's face became much better after Xuanyuan Zhan left's torture zone. When Feng Yu saw Xuanyuan Zhan being tortured to such a state by Dou Dou, he felt that it was really funny. Feng Yu held onto Dou Dou's hand and left Xuanyuan Zhan's bedroom. Before she left, he even shook her head, thinking that Xuanyuan Zhan was reaping what he sowed.
The East Palace.
"Reporting to the crown prince, Xuanyuan Zhan seems to really be sick." A small dog retreated to the crown prince to inform him.
"How is that possible? Xuanyuan Zhan was obviously pretending to be sick, how is that possible?" "What did the imperial physician say?" The Crown Prince asked angrily.
The servant heard the Crown Prince's anger and felt a bit fearful, "That's too …" Imperial Physician, you say you're seriously ill and can't get out of bed.
"The imperial physician can go back and report to Imperial Father. What did Imperial Father say?" Xuanyuan Qingtian asked the Emperor's subordinate beside him.
"Your Highness, after hearing the news, the Emperor did not say anything. He only nodded to show that he understood." The eunuch told the Crown Prince word for word.
Xuanyuan Qingtian was infuriated to hear that the emperor didn't have any other way.
"Clang!" The Crown Prince was so angry that he flipped the table.
The servants knew that if their master was unhappy, the only ones who would be unlucky would be them.
"How could that be? Those who are in good shape say they are sick. You quacks, quacks. " As the Crown Prince spoke, he kicked the servants beside him.
When Feng Jiaojiao passed the living room, she noticed that the crown prince was infuriated. She walked over to pacify the crown prince.
"You dog slaves, why did you provoke the crown prince into such a rage?" Feng Jiaojiao scolded the servant.
"Prince, please calm down and let your anger hurt your body. Why do you have to go all out over this?" Feng Jiaojiao said obsequiously.
"Do you know that Xuanyuan Zhan feigned sickness to avoid an expedition?" Xuanyuan Qingtian gritted his teeth in hatred.
Feng Jiaojiao rolled her eyes and said tenderly: "Then can I send the imperial physician over?"
"What use is that bunch of trash?" Xuanyuan Qingtian said angrily.
"Then, Crown Prince, have you thought of any good methods?" Feng Jiaojiao asked curiously.
"Even father has not given him a discount, so what can I do?" Xuanyuan Qingtian said helplessly.
Xuanyuan Qingtian knew that this opportunity to punish Xuanyuan Zhan would be wasted. He didn't know if he could get such a good opportunity next time. But when he thought of how the Emperor could do nothing to him, how could he pretend to be sick when he was unable to do anything to the Emperor?
Xuanyuan Qingtian couldn't say anything, and could only sulk silently.
